Tubed

My boys have the "ear infections/huge tonsil" genes.

Two weeks after Logan had his tonsils out, Colin had to get tubes in his ears.

Now all three boys are "tubed".

No more ear infections (at least until the tubes fall out).

The hardest part about a baby getting surgery is that they can't eat after a certain point and they aren't old enough to understand why.

I wasn't too worried, because Colin usually sleeps all night.

But he must've known something was going on because he woke up at 4 am and wouldn't go back to sleep. We didn't have to be to the surgical center till 7:15. We were relieved when his surgery was over and he got to have a bottle. He gulped it down so fast.

We definitely took a nap when we went home.

"Me want a bottle". -In the waiting room


Trying to keep him entertained so he doesn't cry. He was pretty hungry.
After: He was restless for about 30 minutes and then he wanted to play and acted like nothing had happened.

He is doing great now, except of course he is teething. There is always something.
